Men and women are approaching coronavirus precautions differently, and men may be worse off for it. The different attitudes may explain why women have shown less vulnerability to the virus and experienced less mortality compared to men, according to the international researchers from Bocconi University in Italy, Harvard Business School, and other universities. The differences also decreased over time in cases where men and women were exposed to the same flow of information. However, while women were more onboard with coronavirus protections than men, the study found that compliance with health protocols dropped with both men and women over time. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently said that men needed more reminders about washing their hands than women.
